This is waaaay too long to read and there's so much conflicting and constantly changing information, but worth a read (or a skim): [MEDIA]
What would you propose would have contained it on day 1? Every other country in the world had a month's advance notice of the possibility of it...
I know buybacks are an easy target, but this is more complicated than that. If not buybacks, the money would likely have been paid out in...
Those bailouts cost the government nothing and saved millions of job sand ultimately the entire US economy. They also punished the companies to...
Of course it wasn't - but it's an ideal. This suggestion is literally the equivalent of putting a "smart people not wanted" sign up. And "young...
This seems like a great way to attract the best and brightest.
I think it depends on how federal tax liability is defined. If you worked even 1 hour during 2018, you'd have Social Security / Medicare taxes,...
What is the advantage of cancelling it now instead of in April or May? It's the same reason MLB only delayed part of their season and the NBA is...

Agree - although 2008 should have done some of that and it made people even more libertarian with the "no bailouts!" movement. I think this may...
It's a bit more complex than that. WHO had testing kits as far back as January. We chose to make our own and botched the process. We didn't ask...
Have you considered maybe Italy has plenty of tests and is more concerned about treatment? It's not like the US confiscated them.
For all the gloom and doom and the seeming impossibility of stopping this thing, it's worth noting that China seems to have stopped it and life is...
In 10 months, if thing still exists, it's probably spread to just about everyone. In this scenario, there's a decent chance that many of our...
And that is the fundamental problem here. If you don't, you'll kill people with homelessness and starvation. But is it even possible to do?
